Chapter 904: The prototype of Beiwei, the glory of Zhenbei
Sun Wangzu, the general of the Zhenbei Cavalry Army, looked at the one-sided battlefield and the raging Yue Fei tribe in horror. He couldn't believe this was true and said in disbelief: "How is it possible!"
He really couldn't believe that their Zhenbei cavalry were being tortured and killed like this!
Most of the Da Cang cavalry are located in the north of the town. With these few thousand knights, even if they encounter Beidi's regular cavalry, with the same number, they will definitely not be left behind.
However, now, to be surrounded by a group of infantry and slaughter them to their heart's content, this seems like a fantasy to any proud Zhenbei cavalry general. I believe that any Zhenbei soldier has never thought about it before.
Such a outrageous scene would occur.
Under Yue Fei's command, hundreds of people formed a wolf formation in groups of five with a clear division of labor. Those who cut off the neck would only cut off the neck, and those who cut off the legs would only cut off the legs. These hundreds of people were selected by Yue Fei from among 20,000 people.
They were the most elite group, and their sword skills were really ruthless. There were heads and limbs everywhere, and the scene was very horrifying, which greatly shocked the enemy.
When fighting on the battlefield, generally when one's own side suffers more than one-third of the damage in combat, morale will drop sharply. If the damage exceeds half, deserters will easily appear.
Although the Zhenbei Army is elite, it is still far from an army like the Champion Battalion that can truly fight to the end. When the casualties reach a certain level, their morale will decline until they are beaten to collapse.
Facing the hundreds of soldiers led by Yue Fei, who was extremely cold and like a killing machine, the former army finally became timid and dared not face Yue Fei. Under the leadership of some "role models", small-scale rout incidents soon occurred.
Often at this time, the generals who take the lead will mostly use iron-blooded methods to kill these soldiers who intend to flee. Since ancient times, no matter when it is, no matter where they are, these generals will not be soft-hearted or merciful to these deserters.
Controlling troops is nothing more than this.
But at this time, Sun Wangzu couldn't even do this.
What they have to face is not just Yue Fei's hundreds of people. Yue Fei's hundreds of people are just disrupting their formation. Although the killing seems fierce, the real danger is always surrounding the periphery and advancing forward.
The main force of the army.
Sun Wangzu looked at all this in despair. The Zhenbei Cavalry, which had once been invincible on the battlefield, lost like this, and the defeat was so miserable.
Sun Wangzu waved the spear in his hand hysterically. As a general of the Zhenbei Army for more than 20 years, he also had a sense of honor for the Zhenbei Army in his heart and had a firm will to defend this honor.
Moreover, he was also a Fire Tiger and Leopard Cavalry. Like Zhendong's Black Cavalry, these two troops were not only the strongest combat power of the two generals, but also the basis for the two generals to control the entire army.
These two troops are also the most loyal troops of the two generals.
You can lose the battle, but you must not bring shame to the general behind you.
Sun Wangzu was also a brave general who was not afraid of death. Although he was facing a desperate situation, he still showed the courage of a fierce general despite his desperate efforts. He killed thirty-two enemy soldiers in a row with one long spear.
Facing Yue Fei's carefully selected hundreds of armored elites, it only cost two more guns.
"Surround him and kill him!" Yue Fei did not take action himself, but handed over the tiger who was already trapped in the cage to hundreds of armored elites.
Yue Fei picked out a few hundred of the most elite soldiers from among the 20,000 horses, and concentrated the entire army's armor on these few hundred men. They were not prepared just for this battle.
As a god-level commander, he naturally has a long-term vision.
His preparations were for these hundreds of people to form an army alone. In other words, he planned to build an elite army with his mark on them based on these hundreds of people.
He has even thought of a name for this troop of soldiers and horses. The breeze blows in the valley, and the mountain is Cuiwei. No grass will die, and no wood will wither. These soldiers and horses should be called Beiwei.
However, this idea is worth considering now. The formation of a new elite army cannot be decided by Yue Fei alone, and the manpower, material and financial resources required behind it are not something Yue Fei can come up with.
However, it does not prevent Yue Fei from already starting to prepare for it.
Otherwise, during the previous march, Yue Fei would not have spared any time to train the formation of this small group of troops.
Now, it was time for Yue Fei to test the results.
For famous generals like Yue Fei, Han Xin, and Li Jing, an army should rely on the collective strength. Facing the enemy's fierce generals, an elite battalion should have sufficient ability to surround and kill all individual forces, rather than say
No matter what kind of strong generals appear, if our side lacks the corresponding strong generals, it will be in trouble.
And following Yue Fei's order, small circular military formations formed one after another, like turtles, and surrounded Sun Wangzu.
At the outermost edge of the circular formation, some soldiers not only wore distant armor, but also held giant shields, maximizing their defense capabilities.
Sun Wangzu's spear was simply not enough to break through these huge shields. Within the circular formation, two sword and axemen were ready to attack, ready to chop the horse's legs at any time.
Sun Wangzu saw that the stabbing moves could not break the enemy's formation, so he had no choice but to use the gun as a stick to look at the turtle shell and break a gap in his heart.
However, if he faced a person alone, he might be able to break it open. However, he was facing a group, and the shields were tightly combined. If he wanted to shake one of them, he had to shake several of them at the same time.
.
It might be possible to replace him with a powerful general like Hammer General, but obviously, Sun Wangzu is not enough.
Sun Wangzu fired dozens of shots in a row, but not only did he not shake those turtle shells, but he himself was very tired.
As for the sword and shield players in the formation, whenever Sun Wangzu attacks one of the turtle shells, the sword and shield players of the remaining turtle shells will immediately split the horse's legs from the gaps in the shield.
As Sun Wangzu's physical strength was depleted, he was finally unable to make a watertight defense when attacking. He accidentally let a blade hand chop on the horse's leg. When the horse stumbled, he was thrown away from the horse.
At this moment, the reaction of the soldiers who surrounded him was not slow at all. Several soldiers jumped up and pressed directly towards him, and the swordsmen and axe-hands chopped wildly.
Sun Wangzu was unable to adjust in time because his body was out of balance due to being thrown away by the war horse. For a moment, blood dripped from the cuts by these sword and ax hands, and his stumps and broken arms were scattered in all directions.
